can anyone ID these ???

Hi Chaps
From the description and pic, can anyone confirm that these are lanc and not something smaller?

They measure 12 inches wide and 18 inches long with the dome being about 6 inches tall. The perspex is 1/4 of an inch thick.

Blisters –
Blenheim
Spitfire (PR) – not these though!)
Mosquito (most likely? Bruce?)
Lockheed 10, 12 & 14 (Sidney Cotton – v.v. unlikely)
And some others…
HTH!

Hi Peter,

Study the attached line drawing from the Lanc Spare Parts Illustrated Appendix.

I have a pilot’s sliding window and it measures 20 inches in depth by just over 18 inches in width. The panel containing the blister is clearly wider than the sliding window, so it looks as though your panels are from something else.

I saw a stack of similar panels at an antiques auction two years ago and thought my prayers had been answered. Sadly not, after I got the tape measure out.

Regards!
